Question

4(x + 1) - 8(5 - x) = 3​

Answer 1

Answer:

4(x + 1) - 8(5 - x) = 3

4x + 4 - 40 + 8x = 3

12x = 3 - 4 + 40

12x = 39

x = 39/12

x = 13/4

Step-by-step explanation:

hope it helps you

have a nice day ahead ✌✌

Answer 2

Answer:

The value of x is

$\displaystyle{\boxed{\red{\sf\:x\:=\:\dfrac{13}{4}}}}$

Step-by-step-explanation:

We have given a linear equation in variable x.

We have to find the value of x.

The given equation is 4 ( x + 1 ) - 8 ( 5 - x ) = 3.

Now,

4 ( x + 1 ) - 8 ( 5 - x ) = 3

⇒ 4x + 4 - 40 + 8x = 3

⇒ 4x + 8x - 36 = 3

⇒ 12x = 3 + 36

⇒ 12x = 39

$\displaystyle{\implies\sf\:x\:=\:\cancel{\dfrac{39}{12}}}$

$\displaystyle{\implies\underline{\boxed{\red{\sf\:x\:=\:\dfrac{13}{4}}}}}$
